TASK 2

Script:

Classical music has a wonderful effect on babies, even before they are born. According to several studies, this kind of music can help babies develop creativity as well as language ability. Plus, it can assist newborn babies in recognising moods through various melodies, which is the key to the development of emotional intelligence. Besides, classical music also helps mothers feel relaxed and comfortable, so it’s definitely a good way for them to relieve stress and reduce anxiety. Many mothers who want their future babies to become intelligent usually listen to classical music, such as the amazing works of Mozart and Beethoven, during their weeks of pregnancy.
